Well, hello. It’s been awhile, to say the least. But I’m still here. I’m cooking and parenting and working and Instagramming all the things. Life is very good and very busy. Lately I’ve found myself writing blog posts in my head. I’ve wanted to update you all on the things going on in my life. I was interviewed by the PDX Food Stories podcast,… Read More »
This warm butternut squash salad has been in my repertoire for years. Smitten Kitchen originally published the recipe in 2009, and I immediately fell in love with the dish. I’ve been making it ever since. For whatever reason, this one of those classics that I never seem to tire of. It’s healthy and light, but it’s so unique and full of… Read More »

We trekked to Seattle for my cousin’s wedding (and Margot’s flower girl debut!). I went to NYC… Read More »

I’ve missed blogging and I have a lot of fun posts planned for this summer. That said, what better way to jump back into the blog than with… Read More »
I’ve been trying to figure out how to actually write out the recipe for this butternut squash chili with turkey and poblanos. It’s been years since I’ve even glanced at a chili recipe. It’s just one of those things that I make up as I go. I don’t measure anything, I just throw some stuff in a pot (meat, onions, tomatoes,… Read More »
